Eibach Sways and Tire Pressure Monitors
I just had my Eibach Sways installed by a local peformance shop. About 30 seconds after I left the shop, my low tire pressure indicator displayed. Does anyone know if their is any correlation between the sway install and display of the indicator? BTW, I was advised by the shop that they did not have to remove any of the wheels to complete the sway install.
On a seperate note, after the install I hear a popping noise when turning. I was advised that this is normal because the bushings are stiffer than oem and I will probably hear this until the bushings are fully broken in (btw, lubricant has been used) - Does this sound correct?
Thanks.

Re: Eibach Sways and Tire Pressure Monitors
First, installing sway bars has nothing to do with tire pressure sensors. Check you tire pressures. If you find 1 tire low, check to make sure you didn't pick up a screw at the shop.
I have Eibach sways on my car and I have never heard a single noise from them in turns. I installed them myself. I was pretty liberal with the bushing lube and I've never eve had a single squeek in the 8 months they have been on the car. Check to make sure everything is tight and the alignment is good. It sould like something wasn't installed right to me. Make sure the end links and brackets are installed correctly.

According to my service manual, If the light comes on and you hear a sound, you have a tire less than 28 psi. If the light comes on and you don't hear a sound, there is a malfunction of the sensor.

Re: Eibach Sways and Tire Pressure Monitors
Thanks for the information. After checking my tire pressure, I realized that tire pressure was low in all four tires. I am not certain why tire pressure was sufficient prior to the shop visit and insufficient thereafter. As for the popping noise while turning, I have not heard it after putting air in the tires.
